My Bloody Valentine – m b v

am i the only one who quite likes this album ?

My copy had an unbelievable amount of static charge drawing dust from all around to it when I first got it but after a good cleaning this pressing is absolutely majestic. Packaging is super nice and glossy, prints are really pretty and the vinyl feels super heavyweight and tough, and the sound is so clear and three dimensional. I feel completely lost in the world of this album while spinning the vinyl, I rarely say this but this pressing sounds way better than any digital version of the album. Super detailed and beautiful, I can almost see the colors of the music. Hearing this on vinyl is just an experience. One of the best sounding records I’ve ever heard.

A £25 record in stock everywhere that someones paid £150 for. Was it mad Vladi himself?

Jesus what a pressing. Everything sounds clear and blends together in such a melodic and hypnotizing way. The low end is really good. Highly recommend it

What a stunner! Dead quiet pressing. Audio is beautiful and produces a transcendental listening experience. Blissed out.

This pressing is nearly immaculate - only gripe with mine is there's a persistent tick on the A4, but the rest plays perfect. No centering or warping issues. The gatefold is one of the best I've ever seen and the printed art is a nice touch. Shields and company did a great job mastering this for vinyl.

Music: 4.5/5
Pressing: 4.5/5

For the most part this pressing is absolutely fantastic, benefitting incredibly well for the format. Unfortunately, on Side B, there's a piece of paper (?) stuck in the grooves and I couldn't get it out no matter what I tried, so now there's a skip I can't remove. Aside from that though, which seems to only be a "me" thing, absolutely pick this up. Fantastic quality on the packaging too

When m b v came out, it was too expensive to even think about buying it. Fortunately, i wait a couple of years and this was ten pucks or so in amazon.
Great record. All songs sound strong and amazing with a high volume. I know that somebody would kill me if i say that i find more interesting and good this than loveless.

Anybody else have a slightly different runout? Doesn't match this version or the other 2021 release. I bought the deluxe edition, so I know this is what I have.

Right. I finally bought a sealed copy of this yesterday at a decent price on eBay.
I haven't heard the original copy so I have nothing to compare it with (except digital).
I have to say that my copy isn't warped, it has no pops or crackles and is clean and flat.
It seems it's the luck of the draw with this one.
